Micronations.net is dead

*sigh* This is ridiculous.Liam Sinclair wrote:Can you please use another abbreviation other than MNN, as the Micronational News Network is clearly associated with MN.net. We specifically asked for our proprietary property to be respected, as well as our decision to shutdown MN.net. Creating a new forum called "MNN" to "replicate" Micronations.net/MNN and asking us for all the relevant files, including proprietary property, is clearly disrespecting that request.
I'm disappointed to see that after seven years of providing all of you with some of the core services used by micronationalists, you are so readily disrespecting our decision.
As I said to Will over email, please get your own brand. The intent of the co-owners was and is not to give you the use of our brand. We are not lending our legacy to any particular group, MCS-based, INS-based, or otherwise.
The world will not end if you create something unique .
Thank you kindly,

Liam,
Why then was Ian trying to give the micronations.net idea to Pete?

I'm more than willing to have our domains point towards whichever new project comes online to replace MN.net. However, that is solely to help build up a user base and is by no means a license to assume the MN.net identity in any way, shape, or form. The co-ownership has collectively spoken, and the MN.net identity is not up for licensing. No one at the MCS, INS, etc. has any right, moral or otherwise, to assume our identity or legacy.

Fair enough.
So long as that is universally respected.

Thanks, a public archive would be very useful.

Recovering the Knowledge Base and Publishing stuff would be nice ...
